Thank you for the review. I purchased three flexible 200-watt Bouge RV panels for my small travel trailer. Have not hooked them up yet but, looking forward to using them.
Report back after you hook them up! We've found they do an EXCELLENT job in the shade, let us know how it works out! If you email us a picture of your setup, we'll use it in our next video about RV panels! thomas@solarreviews.com
I have two 200w BougeRV panels in the mail right now. I tried a "classic" 120W panel after getting a Jackery 500... and that panel worked ok as long as it was fully in sunlight... but as soon as there was the equivalent of a pea shading it, the efficiency dropped like a rock. After looking around these CIGS panels caught my eyes, and what really got me was when it showed how well it could handle partial cover... the fact that I watched the really crazy videos of the panels being shot, run over, stepped all over and submerged in water after the fact and STILL worked, only made me more confident that the extra money for them are well spent. Personally I choose the version with holes... but ironically it seems as if you need to make the holes yourself you could actually do that without effecting the panel too much :p Not that I would do it, but still.
Thank you so much for a great review! I just got two 100 watts yuma today. Planning to put them on parallel with another 150 watt bifacial flexible in series. I think these will go great with each other as now I can harness some low light performance from cigs along with full bright daylight thanks to the bifacial panel. Super stoked to see what it does on our rv camping trip!
Yes, this is the coolest solar panel at the moment! But the price! Wow! I assume that the price will fall over time and you will be able to afford to buy.
